For me it's The Rock and Chris Pratt.

Guardians of the Galaxy was great but I just wish he would stop playing starlord in every other role he's in!

Jenna Ortega. For awhile I only saw her name in poor bastardizations of my favourite childhood media and it has soured me on her work entirely.

Jude Law. He creeps me out so much I can't watch him. He's been in the news for domestic abuse which doesn't surprise me... I shudder watching him

None. I dislike some actors, but so many other people pour part of themselves into these things and influence each other when developing them that it's impossible for me to not have at least some curiosity.

Collin Farrel and Kristin Stewart.

They're just not good actors. They've been in a couple good movies, but those movies succeed despite, not because of them.

Melissa McCarthy does that for me. It's getting better, but for the longest time I'd see an interview with her about some project and she's funny, charming, intelligent, and convinces me to check it out. Then I would watch the thing and it's like "Haha fat girl poopoo fart." .

Charlie Hunnam is not good, has a silly face, and cannot deliver lines.

It’s true he’s been awful since Queer as Folk, but if you’ve heard his normal speaking voice in The Gentlemen it’s kind of understandable that his character accents always sound a bit forced.

Tom Hanks. I'm not sure why, as he seems like a perfectly nice person, and even a good actor. But I just find him incredibly irritating for some reason.

He needs to start subverting peoples expectations of him. Do a horror film and be the murderer or be a shitty corporate CEO or something.

Nick Cage.

Man’s not a bad actor, but he’s often cast in roles he has no earthly business being in.

Honestly, 7/10 of his castings are way off.

You beat me to it. I like(d) him in his early career, then it got to the point where pretty much everything I saw that had him in it sucked, so if he was in a movie, it was a sign to me to skip it. I have had a bit of a change of heart in some of his latest stuff, I'll at least consider watching it if there's a modicum of evidence that there are redeeming qualities to the movie overall.

The other aspect of it is that I used to think he was good looking when he was young, and then sometime in the late 90s or early 2000s he just seemed to turn physically repulsive to me. Part of it is his hair. I think if he ever got a good hair cut or played a part that involved wearing a decent hair piece, it might not be so bad.
